1966 Valiant for the Other Daughter....

Outstanding!!!

Without a doubt the best looking small block Mopar I've seen. Job well done, Jim.
 
Just because I’m retiring and I promised not to spend any money will we really figure out what we need this pops up 50 miles away. Damn it.

Been busy. I am now retired as of yesterday! Maybe I’ll have time to finish this! One more thing I have been dreading is done. Is tricky with factory AC. Lots of templates and practice bends help a lot.

Starter bolted in left-hand side manifold bolts modified to allow a .300 inch header flange to be installed so that the manifold does not hit the Edelbrock aluminum heads. Original 273 manifold gaskets and shields installed with high temperature silicone and this side is done.

Bookers! How's this version? They tend to be hit and miss.

Staying far away from the fire pit! This is my first time with a bottle... only had it during a business trip once and the guy I was with bought me this bottle for retirement! You can not inhale before you take a sip!

Pro tip: run through an aerator, ( like for wine). That'll reduce the layer of alcohol without adding water.
